Rotwood | EASILY one of the best new roguelikes!! @ 2K
0Rotwood is a super cool co-op or solo dungeon crawler with rogue-lite elements in development. It features a beat ’em up-style camera angle and combat system, with players having to fight corrupted beasts using a variety of weapons and skills. Rotwood's animations are smooth; the gameplay is fun; Rotwood presents a nice challenge, and it's great to play with friends! There is a lot of variety in Rotwood regarding the different possible load-outs you can end up with. There is also quite a bit of variety in appearance, where you can make a cute character, a menacing character, a friendly-looking character, or something else. I love that this game is able to incorporate rogue-lite elements into the Castle Crashers formula. Each expedition you start will let you pick between options for power-ups. You’ll then occasionally be able to choose more the farther you get in the run. Examples of these power-ups are projectiles being fired every three attacks, and a chain of lightning that zaps enemies whenever you land heavy attacks. This makes it so that every run is unique, and you’ll feel your character grow more capable the deeper you are in your run. I am very excited to see where the developers take it from here. Hope you enjoy my video.
